According to a report from ESPN, Man City are eyeing a swoop for Wolves star Adama Traore this summer and currently lead Barcelona in the race for his signature – but many Sky Blues are yet to be impressed by the 24-year-old ‘pace merchant‘.
Traore, who has started 24 league games for Wolves this season, becoming a mainstay under Nuno Espirito Santo, is currently on a hot run of form – having averaged an impressive five completed dribbles per match in the Premier League over 2019/2020 as per WhoScored.
As well as this, Traore has bagged four goals and nine assists, with a few of those strikes having come against City in the league – scoring a brace at the Etihad during our 2-0 loss to Wolves earlier this season and helping to spark a 3-2 comeback against us at Molineux.
However, City supporters are still in rage over the links, especially since he is valued at £80 million – find all of their objections to the rumour down below.

I think this guy would be a real gamble he’ll either turn into our Mane or Jesus Navas part two. Loads of pace but as a footballer his touch and finishing not so sure.

This is just another example of buying a player because they are good, why do that when he plays on the right-wing and we have Marhez, Bernado & Foden who also play there ? We need a left winger to compete with Raz.
